A ‘dejected’ Arkadiusz Milik will be out for around four months after undergoing knee surgery on Monday, Napoli have confirmed.

Milik tore knee ligaments for the second time in a year over the weekend and – like 11 months ago – faces another extended spell on the sidelines.

“Professor Mariani completed his surgery on Arek Milik’s right knee at the Villa Stuart clinic,” read a statement on Napoli’s official website.
